  1. That’s crummy Guy… you might want to give Dave Thibeault a phone call.
  2. Gorgeous!
  3. Call Dave T or S.I. Reproductions are chrome plated over brass…..Much superior than original die cast rings!
  4. Well, they must be able to afford it… and I’ve heard that caskets do not have pockets!!!!!
  5. If you need a diff cover gasket, an RDS # 6629 will do the trick!
  6. A ‘National’ #5778 will do the trick!
  7. I think an events location (and your location) has much to do with the practicality of attending.
  8. Good info… May work as long as front springs are up to snuff!
  9. Thanks for the pics!…. Ixnay on the ‘17” wheels, which are a ‘fad’ thing (IMHO), which spoil the look of ‘60’s collector cars….. Also, I would think fender clearance up front would negate the idea anyway….. Kudos to you for being inventive though!! PS…. Your idea might work by using tires with a super low profile… I saw a ‘61 Corvette set up like that….. To each his own I guess!!
  10. I use Mercron lll in all!!
  11. At the time, I believe Avanti Motors was especially concerned about the intense heat created by the addition of catalytic converters.
  12. Good move on the mild 350…. And the detail work is really outstanding!
  13. Factory tried that on Altman-Blake era Avanti ll’s.

    Avanti Elegance!

    “Paint?” works on this one Mark! Loewy considered two-tone paint schemes to also be ‘applied elegance’.

    Avanti Trading!

    You’re close enough on this one Mark.. Trunk space had to be sacrificed (or traded) to make what began as a two passenger concept into a four passenger car. (rear seat area) Well done!
